Nokia phone versus paintball

We've got early access to a prototype of a tough new Nokia phone. So we thought we'd put it through some rigorous and very unscientific tests to see how rugged it actually is. This time we shoot it with a paintball gun.

PLEASE NOTE - DO NOT ATTEMPT TO REPLICATE ANY OF THE SCENARIOS SHOWN IN THE VIDEO. THE SCENARIOS SHOWN IN THESE VIDEOS ARE EXTREME AND WHILST THE RESULTS SHOWN ARE GENUINE, THEY ARE NOT MEANT TO DEMONSTRATE COMPLIANCE WITH ANY PUBLISHED PHONE SPECIFICATION.

Did the screen break?

[NokiaConversations]

No damage whatsoever. We shot it from about 10 metres and it survived. It surprised us too! The fella shooting it was from the paintball place, and he was seriously impressed - he told us most phones that get hit with a pellet break. Took a while to wipe all the paint off though :)

The idiots who've vote me down obviously haven't taken a science class. I'll spare you the lesson.

[YousufM24]

Yes, it looks like. So it fails, isn't it?

[lsc5150]

Are there any other models that are as resistant as this 3720? I own a 5130 XpressMusic, and it kinda looks like the 3720, but I'm not sure if it would survive after taking a paintball shot, or falling into a swimming pool...

I've seen a red version in another video, reminds me of 5500 copper. And i've seen a blue one too.
